I've found about 4-6" usable light penetration from plls, the plants just go on different size boxes depending on their size to keep them that close.

Yes! you are back! I would be honored if you stopped in my thread and dropped some info on your off grid living and how you did it...

mite be a little late. but I would go an extra week or 2 of flower.. and if u r having to much stretch inbetween buds then id put more lights or lower lights . I pulled 350 grams off a 400w horizontal.. im going to try vert . if I can get a LB per 400. I figure I can get 3 per 1000.
Bump for Dr. Bud.
Hey gang. I've been lurking around here for quite some time, and like others Dr. Bud is the reason I finally created an account. First time grower, total noob. I've read just about everything one can and all the sweet tutorials/walk throughs/etc you guys have contributed here.
To cut to the chase, is there anyone else doing what Dr. Bud is doing? With his level of turn over? More details on pruning etc? I'm getting a set up together over the next couple weeks and am looking to model just the same.
Again, total noob, educated, but still a noon, so your grace is appreciated! Many thanks! You all have already taught me a ridiculous amount of information so thank you in advance.

i plan to do dr.b setup in the future just in the planning phases now seeing which strains yield well and do good in sog.
based on what i know of his methods you want a plant that doesn't require much trimming. idea is for single cola plants that you can pack/stack in there.

Epic thread, heavily edited.
Must have plants that clone easily and lean to the
broad leaf cultivars. I find I prefer the narrow leaf
long flowering types.
I started with a Dr. Bud style grow, even used soda
bottles. Too many plants/high maintenance for me.

Howdy Dr. It has truly been a pleasure to read your posts. Having read your work in High Times in the late 80's & 90's its really been like catching up with an old friend. You've contributed an awful lot of good information and detailed techniques to truly "Overgrow". Love the way you seem to ignore/break virtually every accepted "rule". And the pics are like a virtual "Where's Waldo?" How many ules can you spot the good dr ignoring?
1) "You can't grow big tight buds with CFL's"
2) "You need a big expensive grow set up to grow killer buds".
3) "You need big, light proof pots to grow killer buds".
4) "You need high dollar grow shop nutes".
5) "Veg?
6) "soil based grow sitting in 9 days of water/nutes?"
Bunches more, how many rules you see broken?
Having shut down my grow for some time now, I've gotten my "fix" "lurking". I'm tempted to bust out a Micro cab grow. Truly inspirational.
As L.E.D. Tech has improved greatly, and may pose a bit less environmental hazard (?). Have you considered a revised LED sog?
Unfortunately I've been unable to "filter" just the Doc's posts, meaning I've had to endure the drama (or what's left of it). Mods, a pure clean version of the docs posts and any relevant questions (there have been some thoughtful ones) would make for better reading. I've got another day or two worth of reading to filter through manually.
I'd love to see more details on the soil structure. I've read what all you use. The "decomposed tree" could use some further enlightenment. I suspect a fair amount of the "magic" is in the microbial action of the wood fungi and various composted materials. Also, I'm guessing this "living soil", and nute blend recipe might just have some valuable components.
The "off grid grow" is simply amazing. As someone else stated (forgive me for not giving proper credit) "surely some of the smartest people around are growing weed". The good Dr here is proof.
Hopefully 2014 will bring us the Dr Bud L.E.D. S.O.G. The challenge? Can the good Dr. devise a means to produce personal bud from a much smaller number of plants efficiently? I'm thinking 8 plants or less ideally for legal reasons.
A big thanks to Doc, the mods, and all who read enough to ask intelligent questions. And yeah, this thread sucked me in. After lots of lurking from a far, I had to join to post.

Hey One2. Dr drew me out of the woods to create an account too.
I found this post to be helpful, not exact answers to combat your "average grower" questions. But solid and helpful none the less.
